It does seem to be a lightbox, the colour is definitely different, BBC LDN is right. I have to say, I preferred the set before with the red panels by the screen instead.

Lord, that looks awful. The colour difference really bugs me.
I liked the old wall.

Must be holiday time as the weather presenters rota has been all over the place. Below are last weeks appearences,a name in brackets is who should normally have been on at that time.

Monday: Breakfast-Sara,lunch/lates-Pete (Wendy)
Tuesday: Breakfast-Sara,lunch/lates-Pete
Wednesday: Breakfast-Wendy,lunch/lates-Sara (Pete)
Thursday: Breakfast-Sara (Wendy),lunch/lates-Wendy (Pete)
Friday: Breakfast-Sara (Wendy). Sara was also on at lunchtime,then Wendy did 6.30 and 10.30.

I thought Wendy and Sara (Kate before her) alternated the Sundays,Sara was on yesterday so she's done the last two. No sign of her this morning though as they used a pre-record from Rachel Mackley who just started on South East today a couple of weeks ago.

Does Tori still work for the Met Office offscreen then, or has she been let go?

Sara is on Weather Centre duty tomorrow morning (and today as she pre-rec NE&C and Scotland) and Wendy is on holiday, so it could be another SET pre-record during breakfast.

Where IS everyone this week?? No Wendy,Sara OR Tori this morning,another pre-record from Kaddy.

Also is Tori meant to be covering Kate's maternity now with Sara back on weather centre duty?

Suppose BBC London's 'sick as a parrot' tonight after Arsenal losing to Birmingham City?

(I caught Lineker & co while waiting for the news. Wouldn't it hurt them to praise City instead of banging on about what a disaster for Arsenal. They are supposed to be 'National!)
